The Federal Socialist Republic of Neopie is a titanic, efficient nation, ruled by Foreign Representative Schulze with an even hand, and renowned for its complete lack of prisons, ubiquitous missile silos, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 14.137 billion Neopians are fiercely patriotic and enjoy great social equality; they tend to view other, more capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt.

The large, socially-minded government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Neopia. The income tax rate is 100%.

The frighteningly efficient Neopian economy, worth a remarkable 5,323 trillion ouanepoumes a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Tourism, Book Publishing, and Arms Manufacturing. Average income is an amazing 376,538 ouanepoumes, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

The words 'private' and 'enterprise' must never appear in the same sentence, there's a bright dawn ahead for Neopie, adults pretending to be teenage girls claim to have wholesome motives, and shady doctors seem to have impeccable records. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Neopie's national animal is the turtle, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Neopie is ranked 770^th in the world and 33^rd in The North Pacific for Most Cultured, scoring 414 on the Snufflebottom-Wiggendum Pentatonic Scale.
